Functions of the Circulatory System
Humans and other vertebrates have closed circulatory systems, meaning that the blood is contained within a system of vessels.

The Heart
The Heart
The heart is enclosed in a protective sac of tissue called the pericardium.
In the walls of the heart, two layers of epithelial and connective tissue form around a thick layer of muscle called the myocardium.
Contractions of the myocardium pump blood.

The Heart
The septum divides the right side of the heart from the left.
It prevents the mixing of oxygen-poor and oxygen-rich blood.
End Show
37–1 The Circulatory System
Slide 19 of 51
The Heart
The heart has four chambers—two atria and two ventricles.
There are two chambers on each side of the septum.
The upper chamber, which receives the blood, is the atrium.
The lower chamber, which pumps blood out of the heart, is the ventricle.
End Show

The Heart
Circulation Through the Heart
Blood enters the heart through the right and left atria.
As the heart contracts, blood flows into the ventricles and then out from the ventricles to either the body or the lungs.
End Show
37–1 The Circulatory System
Slide 21 of 51
The Heart
There are flaps of connective tissue called valves between the atria and the ventricles.
When the ventricles contract, the valves close, which prevents blood from flowing back into the atria.
End Show
37–1 The Circulatory System
Slide 22 of 51
The Heart
At the exits from the right and left ventricles, valves prevent blood that flows out of the heart from flowing back in.
Blood leaves the left ventricle, and enters the aorta.
The aorta is one of the blood vessels that carry the blood through the body and back to the heart.

Circulation Through the Body
The heart functions as two separate pumps.
End Show

Slide 24 of 51
The Heart
Pulmonary Circulation
One pathway circulates blood between the heart and the lungs.
This pathway is known as pulmonary circulation.
In the lungs, carbon dioxide leaves the blood and oxygen is absorbed. The oxygen-rich blood returns to the heart.
End Show

Slide 25 of 51
The Heart
Systemic Circulation
The second pathway circulates blood between the heart and the rest of the body.
This pathway is called systemic circulation.
After returning from the lungs, the oxygen-rich blood is pumped to the rest of the body.

The Heart
Heartbeat
Each contraction begins in the sinoatrial (SA) node in the right atrium.
Because these cells start the wave of muscle contraction through the heart, they are called the pacemaker.
End Show

Slide 28 of 51
The Heart
Sinoatrial (SA) node Conducting fibers
The impulse spreads from the pacemaker (SA node) to a network of fibers in the atria.
End Show

The Heart
Conducting fibers
Atrioventricular (AV) node
The impulse is picked up by a bundle of fibers called the atrioventricular (AV) node and carried to the network of fibers in the ventricles.
End Show
37–1 The Circulatory System
Slide 30 of 51
The Heart
When the network in the atria contracts, blood in the atria flows into the ventricles.
When the ventricles contract, blood flows out of the heart.

Blood Vessels
Blood Vessels
What are the three types of blood vessels in the circulatory system?
End Show
37–1 The Circulatory System
Slide 32 of 51
Blood Vessels
As blood flows through the circulatory system, it moves through three types of blood vessels:
• arteries
• capillaries
• veins
End Show
37–1 The Circulatory System
Slide 33 of 51
Blood Vessels
Arteries
Large vessels that carry blood from the heart to the tissues of the body are called arteries.
Except for the pulmonary arteries, all arteries carry oxygen-rich blood.
Arteries have thick walls.
They contain connective tissue, smooth muscle, and endothelium.

Blood Vessels
Capillaries
The smallest of the blood vessels are the capillaries.
Their walls are only one cell thick, and most are narrow.
The capillaries bring nutrients and oxygen to the tissues and absorb carbon dioxide and other waste products from them.

Blood Vessels
Veins
Blood vessels that carry blood back to the heart are veins.
Veins have thinner walls than arteries.
The walls of veins contain connective tissue and smooth muscle.

Many veins are located near and between skeletal muscles.

Blood Pressure
Blood Pressure
When the heart contracts, it produces a wave of fluid pressure in the arteries.
The force of the blood on the arteries’ walls is blood pressure.
Blood pressure keeps blood flowing through the body.
End Show

Slide 41 of 51
Blood Pressure
Blood pressure is measured with a sphygmomanometer.
A typical blood pressure for a healthy person is 120/80.

Diseases of the Circulatory System
Diseases of the Circulatory System
Cardiovascular diseases are among the leading causes of death and disability in the U.S.
Atherosclerosis is a condition in which fatty deposits called plaque build up on the inner walls of the arteries.
High blood pressure is defined as a sustained elevated blood pressure of 140/90 or higher.

Diseases of the Circulatory System
Heart Attack and Stroke
If one of the coronary arteries becomes blocked, part of the heart muscle may begin to die from a lack of oxygen.
If enough heart muscle is damaged, a heart attack occurs.
End Show
37–1 The Circulatory System
Slide 44 of 51
Diseases of the Circulatory System
If a blood clot gets stuck in a blood vessel leading to the brain, a stroke occurs.
Brain cells die and brain function in that region may be lost.

• eating a balanced diet.
• avoiding smoking.
